I guess you multiply everything times "x", the Xs cancel out, then you will have " a + b = 1x " basically the one does not make any change, so you will end with a " a + b = x "

Give me just a second to write it all down and I'll give you the answers!:)
Answer:
4v - 7w = (101 , -36)
6u -8v = (-78 , 58)
2u +v - 4w = (40 , -4)
11u + 3w = (-88 , 89).
Step-by-step explanation:
u(-5, 7) ; v(6 , -2) ; w(-11,4)
4v - 7w = (4*6+[-7]*[-11] , 4*[-2] + [-7]*4)
=(24+77 , -6 - 28)
4v - 7w = (101 , -36)
6u - 8v = (6*[-5]+[-8]*6 , 6*7+[-8]*[-2] )
= (-30-48 , 42+16)
6u -8v = (-78 , 58)
2u + v - 4w = (-10+6+44 , 14 -2 -16)
2u +v - 4w = (40 , -4)
11u + 3w = (11*[-5]+3*[-11] , 7*11 +3*4)
= (-55-33 , 77+12)
11u + 3w = (-88 , 89)
X^2 = 9.4 = 36
x = 6
good luck
Andy's age = x
Jeff's age = x-2
Andy's age in five years = x+5
Jeff's age in five years = x-2+5
The sum of their ages in five years = x+5 + x-2+5
x + 5 + x - 2 + 5 = 40
2x + 8 = 40
<u> -8 -8</u>
2x = 32
<u> :2 :2</u>
x = 16
x - 2 = 14
<u>Andy is 16 years old and Jeff is 14 years old</u>
